12) Playcalling in the 4th quarter past the ten minute mark ... I was talking to Sun Tzu at the time (who was livid about it) and had to figure that there was some metric he was using to know that the odds were on the side of taking minutes off the clock. But it's not my ideal plan of attack.
You know...I didn't have a problem with this.
For one, it was pretty clear by then that the Bears were having a heckuva time trying to score a TD (let alone two of them just to make the score respectable). Why not keep the clock moving by running the ball?
The other reason (and I'm surprised that you didn't touch upon it), was that Goff wasn't at his sharpest Monday night. As a matter of fact, it very much resembled his performance against San Francisco last week. Why continue passing when Goff had already narrowly missed two INT's at the end of the first half?
